The Socceroos' expected Asian Cup quarter-final opponents Saudi Arabia have snatched a dramatic win in a pulsating match against Oman, with the Australian match officials embroiled in late controversy.
The Saudis trailed for more than an hour in the gripping Group F clash after a penalty given by the Australian video assistant referee (VAR), before grabbing a 78th-minute equaliser from livewire substitute Abdulrahman Ghareeb.
Six minutes into added time Ali Al-Bulayhi headed what he thought was a winner only for the goal to be flagged offside by Australian assistant referee Ashley Beecham.
